The sign glows in the dark. It is rather large and looks awful.

@AnneTwackie I've literally just spent an hour trying to refind this...

Are you going to have a festive reprisal this year?

whatausername · 09/08/2019 20:06

It's 2am and I'm in a hostel in Cambodia desperately trying to not wake up my roommates. This is an old thread but truly a classic! OP I love you a little bit 😂

Only just read this but defo think it's the best thread ever!

BoreOfWhabylon · 08/08/2019 14:56

How did I miss this the first time round? How?

It's a masterpiece.

@AnneTwackie you must repeat it this year!

MrsMozartMkII · 07/08/2019 19:32

Very funny Grin

IvanaPee · 07/08/2019 19:17

I’m sorry to rehash your thread, somebody linked it on another thread.

Please make this an annual thing!

In fact, I think all MNers should choose a grinchy neighbour and spread the stealth cheer!!

Is the Easter bunny going to have any fun this year?

Sorry I have not replied, Wauden and I were on honeymoon, fun police husband didn’t notice. I’m sorry you’re having a tough time ohtheholidays hope it’s the first smile of many in 2019 Flowers
No I’m not planning any further ‘action’, just basking in the anonymous glory of the neighbours still talking about who ‘that nutter’ was. I blame mumsnetters, it was peer pressure.

2nd January and I've only just found this.... Absolutely brilliant and well done for making so many people smile and laugh! ❤️
I'm left with a couple questions though = Does he know it was you? And can you carry it on through the year ie valentines day, Easter bunny, St Patrick's day etc etc?

This will keep me chuckling all day now ☺️☺️☺️

Rhubarbisevil · 02/01/2019 06:46

Are they still there? Are you going to do a “No meat Veganuary” sign?
